Get to the Heart
When I see people broken, broken in spirit, broken in heart, it makes my heart hurt. It pokes at me because I know that it didn’t happen over night. It was a series of events, or a lack there of that led to this hurt. I know it’s a little deep, but it’s just a… Continue reading Get to the Heart

Imagine you were told you had one year left to live, or perhaps even five. I'd assume many of us would instantly make a bucket list and anxiously begin to check those items off!
